I believe the Bulls do not win 3 in a row initially. They aren't in the Finals vs the Lakers.

Same as when mj hit the final shot against the jazz. That is what is remembered, what people forget is the posession before that. Karl malone could have likely sealed the game... but none other than mj stole the ball. No one ever mentions the steal, if not for that.. mj doesnt have the shot.

I am going to be honest with you. I never saw the play before MJ's game winner against the Cavs. And the fact that Ehlo made the layup with Jordan whiffing on the block makes it a little more ironic for me that MJ hit the game winner over Ehlo.

I had seen the buildup to the game winner against the Jazz several times.

If Ehlo was the best option to defend Jordan, that's just sad!

It was a strange era, cause there were so many great teams in both conferences in the late 80s/early 90s. The Cavs were loaded but just couldn't get past the Pistons and Bulls.

Great video. Thanks for posting. Sad what that dude went through. I was a bulls fan during that period as a young guy, but I remember feeling bad for Ehlo. He was a gamer. I thought he won the series when he made the layup. That had to hurt when MJ made that shot.

It's crazy to think that maybe the only guy capable of checking Jordan 1v1 was on his own team. I'd kill to have gotten to see 20 minutes of them going 1 on 1 in an empty gym.

Take it you're too young to know of Vernon Maxwell.

I know right. Not enough Harrison Barns out there... Should be an easy 40ppg in the finals.
